amy: that is american explorer victor vescovo.you can respond to that, pam, and also describe the scope of the problem. how large are these plastic islands that are floating around the world right now? the problem of plastics in the ocean is just immense. the plastics in the pacific ocean are just a huge mass of hundreds of thousands of acres plasticics in a huge out in the pacific ocean. so it is an immense problem. it is not just a physical threat to the marine environment, but as these plastics breaeak up, certainly we've all seen the images of how plastics can chohe sea life such as sea turtles and maririne mammals a and birds, bs these plastics break up, theyy create a an even more insidious problem. they become micro-plastics, which then can b be ingest by marine animals such h as fish, marine mamls, and others, which then posose a threat to human health because these plastics at sea not only contain toxic additives themselves, but when they are at sea, they absorb pollutants such as pcbs, flame referring chemicals such toxi

the man behind the controls was victor vescovo —— who had this to say on the mission —— when he spokeities so, we have spent four years designing and building the submersible and testing it all over the world so we could provide a doorway for science and exploration. because before this, it has all been experimental craft and kind of one—off visitations, but we dived the mariana trench five times in ten days. i made two dives myself and it was just an extraordinary technical achievement that hopefully will benefit a lot of scientists going forward. it actually is quite peaceful. once you break the surface and go down, it is very dark, until you turn the lights on of course. but it is a very peaceful feeling to descend for the end of the last 20 or 25 metres before you get to the bottom, you slowly start to see it come into view, and it is peaceful but also incredibly exciting. to be at the bottom of the ocean with, you know, 16,000 lbs per square inch pounding the outside of the submersible but feeling completely safe, it was just a wonderful experience. let's speak now to drjon cople

ealier, i spoke to victor vescovo about the goals of the mission.! well, we are not quite sure what it was. it was definitely man made and our scientists have taught us sub pilots that nature does not work in straight lines. so, we saw some things, unfortunately, that were man—made. we are still trying to figure out what they were, we are trying to analyse the data. but in any ocean that we have gone diving, and we have been to the bottom of four of the world‘s oceans, we have unfortunately found evidence of one kind or another of man‘s imprint on the ecology of the world. let‘s look on the bright side because there are a number of new species that you saw. how do you tell what it is that you‘re looking at how do you register that you found something that nobody has seen before? well, it‘s actually quite simple. 0ur scientific team just explains to us that they are looking at what we have discovered and compared it to everything they have seen before both and these are experts in deep ocean marine ecology. they will say, that doesn‘t look like anyth
